ahhahha- whoops guess i shouldn't crack at suggestions. idk we CAN turn this topic into another heated convo about forum's name (must. get. more. artsy dumbtopic. y adolescent.) but would it be a worthwhile discourse re the orig purpose of this topic? i concur dear reader... EDIT unless that's what the popular vote is...! give the man what he wants...! give a man a fish and he feeds it for a day...!

Dada, when this happens could we please make some old forums viewable only to logged-in members? I know you want to keep archives whereas I would say BURN IT ALL DOWN but there is really no reason at all that the insane shit in jone forum, people's porn requests in the happy zoo, etc need to be Google-searchable when they never were never actually public even in the site's heyday.

I would edit the above post but my phone is not being cooperative. I would suggest making the entirety of the archives viewable only to members, especially since user accounts are migrating and ESPECIALLY if we are getting a functional search again (not sure if this is the case, though it would be nice). Given that the entire 'hipster oldbie' thread is focused on our endless teenage regrets, I think this would be a pretty popular decision and respectful of the thousands of members who are m.i.a.

Further idea: make the entirety of the archives password protected as well, and pm the password to every current member and no futures. (it could always be requested). If the site is no longer GamingW the rpgmaker site there is no reason to preserve those 2009 and earlier posts for new members. People are only joining for the bonzi buddy thread, honestly.


excepting game and demo and related forums i suppose, as they actually have a function and contain actual information.

No, your user account will be transitioned so you'll be able to edit your old posts and view your old PMs etc.

I knew you wouldn't, but I was sitting there at 4am thinking up the ultimate (yet fair) information protection scheme and I went where my mind took me. Speaking of which, I wonder if there is a living in that. I would make a good anti- private eye.
